Q&A w/ White House Photographer Pete Souza

Did you know The White House’s photostream has been viewed over 41,000,000 times since it started in February of 2009? They average about 50,000 hits a day and some days it spikes to over 200,000!

This feat is in no small part due to Pete Souza, the official White House photographer who takes the majority of the photos in the photostream. If you’ve ever wondered how someone gets an amazing job like that or what it’s like to follow the president with a camera all day here’s your chance to ask. Pete will be doing a live video chat on Thursday October 28 at 7:00 p.m. EDT.

Grant Kaye has been surrounded by photography since he was a toddler. Born in Hawai'i and based in Truckee, California, he followed in his father’s footsteps and went into photography at an early age.

“Dad taught me how to use his medium format camera system, and eventually 35mm while I was in high school in the 1990s. I was always carrying around a camera in college and grad school, but I was mostly taking snapshots and not really seriously studying the art of landscape photography,” he said.
